Defying Labels

"My dear boy, please don't put a label on me --
don't make a category before you get to know me!"

-- John Irving, In One Person

"What others call you, you become. 
It's a terrible magic that everyone can do -- so do it. 
Call yourself what you wish to become."

-- Catherynne M. Valente,
The Girl Who Soared Over Fairyland 
and Cut the Moon in Two



"It ain't what they call you,
it's what you answer to."

-- W.C. Fields
